It\u2019s decked out in red, white and dark blue \u2014 a departure from the lighter blue on the previous planes.

It\u2019s among the biggest foreign gifts ever given to the U.S. government.<\/p>\n<p>The president pushed back, saying it would be foolish to turn it down and pointing to delays over Boeing\u2019s delivery of the new planes and the age of the current Air Force One fleet. Boeing was supposed to deliver the new planes in December 2024, but that timeline has been pushed back to mid-2028.<\/p>\n<p>The gifted jet is reportedly worth $400 million. It\u2019s estimated that the U.S. government spent $1 billion on security upgrades.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/homebuyerrelocation.com\/?p=2880\">New York Knicks\u2019 lucky orange purse on display at Guggenheim<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Trump will take his first trip on the new Air Force One gifted by the Qatari government when he travels to North Dakota on Wednesday, a White House official confirmed to The Washington Times.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2885,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6,7],"tags":[1823,14,66],"class_list":["post-2886","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-politics","tag-air-force-one","tag-donald-trump","tag-qatar"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
